Tenth placed Liverpool will be looking to make a move up the table by beating bottom of the table Wolves on Wednesday but the Wolverhampton side will surely battle bravely to grab a point or even more at Anfield Road.

Wolves are coming from a painful 2-0 defeat at West Ham in the direct relegation battle and are bottom of the table on 18 points.
That's rubbish, Chelsea might even miss out on a top four spot!

I'm afraid not, they will slip up and keep the title chase interesting.
Chelsea face a massive opportunity tonight, if they win against Bolton they will move four points clear of title holders Manchester United.
